buying strawberries, 7.17.23

after the gym, i went to stop n shop to pick up a few protein shakes and ice cream. i was on the phone with e and i asked him if i should get ice cream. he said if i do, to get sherbet or halo top because i’m trying to watch my calories, but in his opinion i shouldn’t. taking his advice, i went to the produce section to get fruit. i looked at the strawberries. they looked incredible. there were 4-1lb packages. the deal was buy 2 and get the 3rd free. the issue is that each 1lb package had one rotten strawberry in it. i picked up 3 packages, then went to check out. i forgot my stop n shop card, so i didn’t get the 3rd free. it was too much of a hassle to get one taken off so i just took the l and went home. when i got home and was cutting the strawberries, i took another l because there were more than 1 rotten ones per pound!! i was like this can’t be the same strawberries i had seen in the store. i ended up tossing out around 7 or 8, but it’s all good because the ones that were good, were good as hell.
